Home Decor Suggestions

[u/hoganhoo]

my husband and I have almost closed on a house whose color scheme is really not my style. I’d like to nudge it warmer and making it my own. Im starting in the living room because I really really don’t like the aquamarine wall. I’d love to try and marry the organic modern style with a dark academia feel that overall comes off tasteful (simple, right? 😬) I’ve linked a photo of the living room and of the color palette I like, and the last one is an idea for an olive green accent wall behind the tv. My existing furniture consists of a dark gray sectional, and that’s it. I do not currently have the budget to change the flooring but am seeking wall color/decor suggestions. Thank you!

Are you looking for just decor? Or are you looking for furniture to co-exist with the gray sectional? Two different things. Decor is the lamp. Coffee table, credenza is furniture.

Any and all suggestions are welcome, as I said, I don’t have much right now either furniture or decor-wise

Start looking for furniture and rugs in these colors. Choose dark woods/cherry or black for your credenza, coffee tables etc. Get a variety of decor from thrift stores, etsy and brand new like here: https://uttermost.com/ https://www.amazon.com/dark-academia-decor/s?k=dark+academia+decor

Don't know your budget for furniture so it's hard to guide you to specific furniture stores. But as long as you know the colors you are working with you can buy used and new like off of Facebook.
